In addition to the final poster for Finding Dory (June 17, 2016), Walt Disney Studios and Pixar Animation Studios have provided us with a first round of official character descriptions as well as details for locations in the film. Note that the information only includes what has been officially released so far, so we will have to wait for additional information on characters such as Becky the loon; sea lions Rudder, Fluke and Gerald; Baby Dory; the Otters; etc. Also worth noting is that the details confirm what we recently reported regarding the film taking place one year after Finding Nemo, not six months, as reported elsewhere.

Although it’s primarily a printed collection of short stories that were e-published last year as part of the ‘Journey to The Force Awakens‘ campaign, Landry Q. Walker’s Tales from a Galaxy Far, Far Away: Aliens, Volume 1 (April 5, 2016) will feature two brand new stories, of which we are pleased to share the first details of below.

Featuring artwork by Tyler Scarlet of Industrial Light and Magic, the 352 page collection of stories is intended to be reminiscent of pulp fiction novels, using aliens featured in Star Wars The Force Awakens who didn’t quite hold the spotlight in the film itself. The official publisher’s description, including details on the just-announced new tales is as follows:

The Walt Disney Company has recently filed multiple trademark applications for something titled ‘Disney Princess: Beginnings.’ Unfortunately, as documented below, the applications are wide and varied so it’s not entirely clear what the campaign will be and who it will be for: whether the Beginnings in the title refers to the beginnings of each princess (be it origin story or infant/toddler timeline) or simply more for its intended audience, which appears to be anyone but infants and toddlers.

Yesterday, Walt Disney Studios and Marvel Studios provided us with high resolution character posters for Team Captain America in support of Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War. Today, we received character posters for Team Iron Man: War Machine, Black Widow, Black Panther and Vision.

Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War finds Steve Rogers leading the newly formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. But after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark’s surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.

Disney Interactive and Gameloft have released a teaser trailer for ‘Disney Magic Kingdoms,’ a mobile experience coming soon to Apple iOS, Android and Windows handheld devices. First announced at Disney D23 Expo last year, the game allows players to incorporate Disney theme park attractions and experiences from around the world to create their own personalized theme park. As play progresses, a story begins to emerge which plots Disney villains against the player who can team up with Disney heroes for control of the park — not unlike Ridley Pearson’s Kingdom Keepers series.

Secrets of The Force Awakens: A Cinematic Journey, a feature-length documentary will have its world premiere during the South by Southwest Film Festival (SXSW®), being held in Austin, Texas, March 11-19, 2016. The documentary, a bonus feature on the upcoming Digital HD and Blu-ray Combo Pack release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, is an inside look at the making of this epic movie, revealed through in-depth footage and exclusive interviews with the actors and filmmakers.

After receiving the first official synopsis from Finding Dory, a simple google search regarding one of the newly released details — that whale shark Destiny is actually nearsighted — led to a preview (no longer available) of Learn to Draw Finding Dory from Walter Foster Jr. Although most of the pages were not available in the preview, it turns out that the entire story pages are visible, leading to some very specific plot points of the film, as is the table of contents, which identifies additional characters.
